The rest of the journey went smoothly. After returning to the ancestral hall, Xie Lan opened the door and entered the courtyard. He saw He Chengzheng pacing back and forth like an ant on a hot pot.
Hearing the sound of the door, He Cheng looked up suddenly. When he saw Xie Lan, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly came to greet him.
"You guys are back. It's great. I'm going crazy. I took a step away and turned around and didn't see you. I was so anxious that I went back to look for you. I didn't find you. There was nothing.
I was almost scared to death thinking something happened to you."
Xie Lan said lightly: "It's okay."
Seeing the indifference on his face, He Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then said weakly: "Brother, no, dad, I swear I didn't mean it. I swear I went back to find you. Don't do this, I'm scared."
Xie Lan glanced at him: "It has nothing to do with you."
He Cheng:?
It was also at this time that he belatedly discovered that Sheng Nuan was not sticking to Xie Lan as usual, but was standing five steps away.
Over there, Chen Chen also walked out of the mourning hall and ran to her: "Sister Sheng, it's great that you're okay!"
Chen Chen's eyes were full of worry and fear.
Sheng Nuan hummed: "Thank you, I'm fine."
When Chen Chen saw her standing alone, he suddenly noticed something. He looked back at Xie Lan, his eyes flickered, and then he spoke to Sheng Nuan in a gentler tone: "Sister Sheng, I just went in to see the mourning hall.
There are two more paper figures inside, Tian Chen and that Bai Mu."
It seems that the dead people will turn into paper figures and appear in the mourning hall.
Bai Zhuo, one of the sisters, was sitting on the steps nearby, crying silently.
At this time, Dai Xiaonu came to deliver the meal: "This is your meal. There is nothing else to do in the afternoon. You can have a good rest. In the evening, I will come to inform the people watching tonight."
The food was placed directly on the table in the yard, and the remaining eight people sat down around the table.
They have little appetite but must eat to maintain their strength.
Chen Chen calmly sat down next to Sheng Nuan and served her rice and vegetables during the meal. He was very considerate and said: "Sister Sheng, eat more to be strong."
He said softly: "The food here is not delicious. When we go out, I will take you to have a big meal."
Opposite him, He Cheng glanced at Sheng Nuan and Chen Chen, then turned to look at Xie Lan, who was eating silently next to him, and lowered his voice: "Boss, what happened? Was there a quarrel?"
Xie Lan said expressionlessly: "Eat your food."
He Cheng sighed: "Don't... look at the other side, he's so diligent and blind, don't lose to the scheming pretty boy."
Xie Lan raised his eyes expressionlessly, while He Cheng shut up and said nothing.
After eating, it was already past noon, but there was still time, so the group decided to go around the village to look for clues.
It can be said that there is no clue now. They left the ancestral hall and wanted to find someone to ask who was in the coffin of the ancestral hall. But as soon as they opened their mouth, the villagers they finally met were scared away and slammed the door.
Xie Lan suddenly said: "Let's find a paper maker in the village."
According to Tian Chen, when he encountered strange things at night, the Zhizha Man protected him, which shows that the Zhizha Man is special.
Although they glued the paper on it, the skeleton of the paper-tie figure was originally made. There should be a paper-tie maker in the village.
The group of people all agreed to go find the paper maker. At this time, a man came out of the house in front.
The man came out of a house that looked like a woodshed, expressionless, and tied the door with chains several times.
Xie Lan squinted slightly and looked through the narrow window of the woodshed.
Next to him, Chen Chen walked over with a smile: "Brother, I want to ask you something."
When he heard that he was asking about the paper maker, the vigilance in the dark-skinned man's eyes dissipated a little, and he pointed to the east of the village: "The paper-maker Liang's house is over there, and that's the house with the wreath at the door."
Chen Chen smiled and thanked: "Thank you, brother."
After that, he immediately returned to Sheng Nuan and whispered: "Sister Sheng..."
Xie Lan kept observing the man, and he saw that the man looked back at them before he finished speaking and was about to enter the house.
What he was looking at was Sheng Nuan... His eyes swept over Sheng Nuan's legs, and a ferocious lust flashed in his eyes.
Xie Lan's eyes suddenly turned cold. At this moment, the man seemed to notice something and suddenly looked over.
When he met Xie Lan's cold eyes, the man was stunned, and immediately returned to his dull and honest look, and went back to his house without saying a word.
The group of people walked towards Zhazhiliang's house. After walking a certain distance, Xie Lan looked back.
The window of the woodshed was locked by a chain, and a pale and blue face looked at them from the window, with a scary look in his eyes.
Soon, they found Zhazhi Liang's house. There was a weathered and faded wreath hanging on the tree at the door, and the door was closed.
It's the turn of the cold-faced man Yang Zhao.
Yang Zhao walked over and knocked on the door: "Is anyone there?"
The next moment, a hoarse voice came from the room: "Who?"
Yang Zhao looked back at the people behind him, and then returned according to what was discussed before: "Hello, we are from a funeral company, and we would like to order some paper figures from you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the voice suddenly become colder: "Don't do it! Get out."
The others were stunned. Yang Zhao was silent for a moment and turned back.
Everyone looked at Mr. Zhong. After all, Mr. Zhong always regarded himself as an experienced player and had a vague leader's attitude.
But Mr. Zhong frowned and didn't know what to do.
At this time, Xie Lan suddenly moved.
He walked to the door of Zha Zhiliang's house and pushed the door open... The next moment, the voice in the room suddenly became sharp: "Who is that person? Get out!"
The hand Xie Lan opened the door held a dagger in his hand. No one else saw it, but people in the room could definitely see it.
Xie Lan said quietly: "We want to find out what happened here. If Mr. Liang knows something, can you reveal it a little bit?"
The room fell into dead silence.
Just when everyone thought there would be no result, the hoarse voice sounded again.
"If you want to know, go to Granny Yan's house."
After saying that, the voice turned cold again: "Get out!"
The door was slammed shut... At that moment, Xie Lan saw that the hand reaching out to close the door was clearly a paper hand.
In this way, after they left Zhazhiliang's house, they asked someone about Granny Yan's house.
When the group arrived at Granny Yan's house, they saw a one-eyed old lady feeding pigs.
The pigsty was right at the door. There were five or six pigs inside and they were chirping eagerly. There were two men sitting on the door pillars, one on the left and one on the right. They seemed to be of abnormal intelligence at first sight and laughed at the group of them.
At this time, it was Sheng Nuan's turn to step forward.
Sheng Nuan hesitated for a moment and took a few steps forward: "Old lady..."
Before she could say anything, the one-eyed Yan Po suddenly raised her head and looked straight over, and then poured the contents of the basin towards her.
Seeing this, Sheng Nuan quickly retreated to avoid... There was a crash, and a basin of blood splashed on the ground, almost splashing on her body.
Po Yan looked at her gloomily: "The black dog's blood is pouring on you, get out!"
Sheng Nuan was able to avoid the pot of black dog blood, but at this moment, a figure from the pig pen behind her suddenly rushed toward her.
Chen Chen's eyes widened instantly: "Sister Sheng, be careful." Bayi Chinese website
Sheng Nuan's heart moved slightly, and she deliberately didn't hide away and looked like she was about to look back... The next moment, Xie Lan quickly stepped forward and pulled her back.
She ran straight into Xie Lan's arms: "Brother."
Xie Lan held her down with one hand and looked at the pig pen with a frown.
At this time, everyone also saw that in the pig pen...a naked woman with chains on her feet, covered in filth and looked like she was crazy.
"Kill you... Meizi is back, kill you all, hahahaha, kill you all!"
As she spoke, she climbed out of the pigsty on her hands and knees and ran straight forward.
Granny Yan screamed: "The pig has escaped, please come quickly, the pig has escaped..."
